Awesome. A less for the day. I didn't bother looking up what would come next, just knowing how to find it is good enough for me.
Good teaser! The title was a big clue so I thought it had something to do with pi. When, I looked at the numbers I realized the missing number is 3. Good, easy teaser.
Awesome! I memorized pi to 25 decimal places, so I got this one! I rarely get series teasers... I'm only here because I finished all the situations and mysteries.
easy as pi!!! lol bad joke....
my friend knew to 4 digits in 3rd grade.... cuz her brother (too smart! tooooo smart! geek!!!!!!) knew like 150 then and he would repeat it over and over really fast....
